Hi to all

Member Introductions
  • We are new to the forum,but not basenji's. My husband has had basenji's for 35 years. When we married 8 years ago he came with a senior basenji and I a elkhound. Sadly old age claimed Oreo's life at 15. We now have two basenji's a 3 year old red and a 2 year old tri. I have gained alot of knowledge over the years and really love this breed. Its not hard to do that. My elkhound has been with basenji's so long he now acts like them. Not many elkie traits left.
    He even sleeps with his leg in the air every now and then. We are lucky as they all get along. Just wanted to say hi to all

  • Hi there! I'm sure you'll have fun here-my boxenji sleeps the same way!

  • Welcome!! How funny about your Elkie :)

  • My mixed breed Missy is getting that way but I don't know what kind of dog she is but if you saw her tail you would say Basenji. That is just tooooooo funnnnnnnnnny

  • It's funny how the other dogs become Basenji's!! Not the other way around!

  • Welcome to the forum. Can't wait to see pics of ALL your dogs.

    @Nancy-Berry The saying is a very true one... when people ask how your dogs are with children, say "It depends.. how are your children with dogs?" Toddler Leora got her little legs smacked more over the dogs than anything. Not training your child to respect dogs, to understand that a hurt dog can and probably will respond, ... well it puts your child and dogs in danger.

    What a sweet face! Thank you for taking her in, she needs a forever home. As Pat indicated, unless you have info on the parents being clear, or at least one clear, she should be tested for Fanconi asap.

    dear muffen hi and welcome :) rescuing a dog is a wonderful thing, i hope this is a good option for you. i know brat has many dogs in florida that are looking for their forever homes. they do a great job of matching dogs to the right owner. disclaimer if you have small children it might be a good idea to get a puppy from a reputable breeder. luckily, puppy season will be here soon and there are a couple of really great breeders in florida.
